Watched Boom this evening. Loads better!

See, a good episode of Doctor Who can even heal the sick.

Husband is already whining. I'm telling him to give it a chance at least.

"Uhh, it's all fucked up and burning , I've never been outside my world before... Blah".

RTD lost him months ago. I have high hopes but who knows.

"Why has he got such a wierd accent"
He says

"That's his accent"

"Is it?!? Is it actually tho"

Husband has been proper gaslit

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

Me: ”ITS MOFFAT"

Him: ......
(doesn't want to watch anymore)



Fukkin sad to see tbh.

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

/stuff about smelting

Him: it's already better because it's disturbing.

Gatwa winning him back!

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

"the relationship is too new to have this investment in each other... And you can tell them that on urban"

I kinda agree, actually. Doctor shouldn't give such a shit at this stage.

It’s quite meta for your husband to be played by Catherine Tate.

Would you believe I said the same thing. Serves him right for being the son of an immigrant like me. Bad Eengiish innit.

He loves the anti capitalist thing. Although on the God bit he says "no one in the future is gonna believe in God".."fukkin child, messin up"

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

"why is he crying again"

 

[krtek a houby]

Why on earth would anyone be live posting during Doctor Who ?

Kids of today. No attention span

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

I'm 41.

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

That doesn't stop me from embracing the modernity of youth

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

"it's like the Library episode where everyone happens everything all at once and it's really confusing.....JUST SHOOT HER"

husband loves it (but apparently doesn't feel the drama ... /Lies/)

It might stop you from enjoying the actual show, though

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

Naaaaaah! I can multitask.

Naaaaaah! I can multitask.

Can understand if it's the Eurovision or a sporting event, but it would indicate a lack of investment in Doctor Who...

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

Husband: "algorithm?? They might as well be da***eks, just sayin".

I think there might be something in that.

Doctor who is for everyone.

 

[krtek a houby]

Doctor who is for everyone.

Not going to argue with you on that one. It's heartwarming to see representation, despite the occasional duff episode.

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

We're all dead eventually.

We're all dead eventually.

Everywhere becomes a beach, eventually.

There were fighting Anglicans in A Good Man Goes To War so I guess this was a tie-in to that.

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

It's a real shame they weren't fighting the Catholics tbh.

Fuck that sect. Srsly.

Yeah, Anglican Marines. In the one with the Headless Monks.

The Papal Mainframe won't like that.

 

[Saul Goodman]

It wasn't as bad as the first two, but hardly thrilling. It was watchable.
I suppose it's like putting Donald Trump in a room with a gherkin. The gherkin is going to look far more intelligent but it's hardly a fair comparison.

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

Anglicans are an offshoot of Catholicism.
Although Anglicans like to say thy are protestant, they are, in fact, not even close- they are English Catholics.

Personally, I loved how the religious undertones of the episode, in which a war of belief leads into another belief in God, ties in to capitalism and patriarchy, works. It ties it into Matt Smith lore of "Tongue of Angels" and "Flesh and Stone" where you have military priests..

All the while, the lack of feminist backlash in the world the Doctor landed in kinda grates me.. But it is written by men for men, so whatever.

I'd like to talk about it more, but this is not the forum for that kind of analysis, so I just prefer to quote my husband as a fan verbatim.

If we're doing live posting now, I'm half way through the Devil's Chord and unexpectedly really enjoying it. But it could be just that Ncuti is pretty hot in that outfit.

Kilt is a winner and should be a mainstay, quite frankly.
